Chapter 182: The Pillar Meeting and the Gambling Contract

"Herald! Herald! ”

Just when Xia Ruo was relieved because the butterfly had calmed down, a herald's crow flew not far away.

"Herald! Bring Tanjiro and You Beans back to the headquarters, and bring Tanjiro and You Beans back to the headquarters......"

The crow shouted the command over and over again, and when she heard this order, Xia Ruo let go of the hand that bound the butterfly ninja.

"It looks like the lord already knows what is going on here, let's take them back and let the lord judge."

"Well, then bring them back," since it was the lord's order, Butterfly Shinobu didn't say anything more.

There was no crisis anymore, and Natsuruo walked up to Tanjiro and took a look at his injuries.

"How's it going, are the injuries serious?"

"My injuries are okay, Mr. Xia Ruo, thank you very much this time," Tanjiro said gratefully, he saw all the things that Xia Ruo helped him with just now, whether it was saving his life before, or just defending him and You Douzi.

To tell the truth, Tanjiro doesn't know how to thank him anymore.

"It's okay if you're okay, next to the headquarters, there may be some turmoil, but it's okay, I'll help you," Xia Ruo said with a smile.

"Thank you so much," Tanjiro thanked again.

"Nothing."

It didn't take long for a member of the hidden to come over and carry the seriously injured Tanjiro, because the hidden members were all masked, so Xia Ruo couldn't see his face clearly, but listening to the voice, it seemed that it was the one who brought him to the ghost killing team at the beginning.

Not only that, Xia Ruo also saw Murata who had changed his clothes, some time ago, Murata seemed to be on a mission, and Xia Ruo didn't see him.

"Mr. Murata, long time no see," Xia Ruo greeted Murata.

"Xia Ruo, ah, no, now I'm going to call Xia Ruo-sama," Murata touched his head a little embarrassed, the last time they met, the other party hadn't joined the ghost killing team, and when they saw each other again, the other party had become a pillar.

How long has it been? One month?

"Mr. Murata, it's really good that you're okay, if I'm not mistaken, the first batch of ghost killers who came to Nada Spider Mountain should all be killed, and Mr. Murata is unharmed," Xia Ruo looked at Murata's body in surprise.

"Well, it's just luck, thanks to the timely rescue of Shinobu-sama," Murata touched his head, not knowing what to do.

"Luck, luck is also talent."

After that, Xia Ruo chatted with Murata for a while, and then everyone returned to the headquarters.

It didn't take too long during the period, and in the morning, Xia Ruo had already taken Tanjiro to the headquarters, because Xia Ruo took care of him along the way, so Tanjiro was not treated too roughly, and he also took medicine, so his consciousness was always awake.

It's just that when he was on the road, Butterfly Shinobu remembered something and told Xia Ruo that today happened to be a semi-annual pillar meeting.

By the time Xia Ruo arrived at the headquarters, there were already six pillars standing in the open space where he gathered, except for the butterfly ninja, the snake pillar was on the tree, and the wind pillar didn't seem to have arrived.

However, they all seemed to know the information that Tanjiro was carrying a ghost, so they glanced at Tanjiro with Natsuruo.

Their gaze only lingered on Tanjiro's body for a moment, and then they focused on Natsuruo and Tom on Natsuruo's shoulder.

After all, for them, the news that the Ghost Slayer has added two pillars in a short period of time is a little more important.

"Is it this boy who kills the upper string and becomes a pillar? It's really a young and promising, and it's also a great increase in combat power for the Ghost Slayer Team," Yanzhu Purgatory Xingjulang said seriously.

"Is it the winding ghost found in Yoshiwara Flower Street, what a mistake, I actually suspected that place, but I haven't had time to investigate carefully, it seems that you have good gorgeous luck," Otozu Yu Tsuki Tengen said with a little gorgeousness, speaking with gorgeousness, it was his style.

"Eh, hasn't anyone noticed the cute cat? I heard that there is a cute cat in the newly added pillar, and it is really as cute as rumored," Mili of the Love Pillar Ganlu Temple stared at Tom on Xia Ruo's shoulder and thought in her heart, she was not embarrassed to say it directly.

"Ah, everything has spirituality, even kittens can get rid of ghosts, what a psychic cat," Yanzhu Sorrowful Mingyu Xingming put his palms together and said with tears in his eyes.

The snake pillar in the tree, Ihei Xiaobane, focused all his attention on Tom, "That cat called Tom, I heard that it was not easy to make the Immortal River suffer a big loss, with the temper of the Immortal River, it can make him suffer so much that he does not dare to retaliate, to be honest, it is a little scary." ”

"What does that cloud look like?" By Kasumi Zhu when there is no ichiro.

Mizuki Tomioka: "......"

These columns really have a lot of personality.

Xia Ruo didn't speak, just stood there quietly, waiting for the arrival of the lord, except for Butterfly Ren and Yi Yong, the other pillars around Xia Ruo were all seeing for the first time, after all, the pillar meeting was only held once in half a year.

He actually wanted to go up and say hello, but the atmosphere was not very right now, and the pillars looked not only at themselves, but also at Tanjiro next to him.

During this period, the wind pillar also appeared, but it was different from the original book, Xia Ruo put the box of your beans behind him to protect it, so the wind pillar did not get the box.

After Kazezhu arrived at the scene, his eyes kept staring at Tom viciously, not even Tanjiro, as if he had some deep hatred.

It seems that Tom was taught a lesson at the beginning.

"By the way, what about the teenager next to him? I heard that it sheltered the ghosts," the Pillar of Love Ganlu Temple suddenly asked.

"Kill it."

"There's nothing to say, let's kill it."

"There is nothing to say about the sheltered ghosts, and I am also in favor of killing, even killing the ghosts with whom he shelters."

……

When it comes to Tanjiro, the opinions of the pillars are quite unanimous.

"You beans, you have never eaten anyone," Tanjiro heard that they were going to hurt you beans, and immediately began to defend his sister.

It's just that those pillars all have a deep hatred for ghosts, so naturally they won't listen to Tanjiro's words, and in the long process of killing ghosts, their thinking has been fixed.

"Lies, your sister is your relative, you will naturally shelter your relative, what you say is not credible, I won't believe it anyway," Snake Pillar was the first to raise suspicions.

"Ah, I'm possessed by a demon, let's get rid of this kid quickly," Iwazuki said with tears in his eyes, but he wanted to go directly to Tanjiro.

Tanjiro is still arguing, "I became a swordsman for the sake of your beans, just to find a way to save your beans, and you haven't eaten people in two years." ”

"Even if your sister hasn't eaten people, but now that she is a ghost, it's hard to guarantee that she won't eat people in the future, if she eats people, the dead life will not be resurrected, so I think it's better to kill her."

Otozu looked at Tanjiro without the slightest pity in his tone.

……

Looking at the indifferent gazes around him, Tanjiro's body was a little cold, he was a little at a loss now, unlike Mr. Xia Ruo, these pillars didn't believe in themselves at all.

The people here only know how to kill ghosts in their heads.

Tanjiro doesn't know how to convince them that You Douzi can't eat people, and he knows that if he can't do this, he and You Douzi will probably die here.

At this moment, Xia Ruo suddenly stood up and stood in front of Tanjiro.

"I practiced with Tanjiro, so I also learned about your beans, and Mr. Rintaki also told me that you beans have not eaten people for two years, and I believe that you beans are a ghost who doesn't eat people."

"Mr. Xia Ruo."

Tanjiro didn't expect that Xia Ruo would still be able to stand up and help himself in this situation, and he also knew how difficult it was for Xia Ruo to be able to help himself speak now.

Xia Ruo nodded slightly at Tanjiro, signaling that he was fine.

There's no way, Yiyong doesn't know how to speak, and now there is no one to support Tanjiro, so he can only come out to support him, how to say it, it can be regarded as an acquaintance, a friend who has practiced and eaten together, if Xia is not a ruthless and unrighteous person, naturally he can't watch Tanjiro bear it alone, no matter how he says, he has to share some of it.

"Xia Ruo, what are you talking about?"

Seeing Xia Ruo stand up, Butterfly Shinobu frowned, in this kind of situation that everyone did not recognize, Xia Ruo chose to support Tanjiro, I really don't understand what he was thinking.

Obviously, he has just become a pillar, so he stands on the opposite side of the other pillars, which is a little too unwise, and Butterfly Ren feels that Xia Ruo is not such an irrational person.

After Xia Ruo said that, the atmosphere changed a little.

The other pillars also set their eyes on Xia Ruo's body, Tanjiro is an ordinary team member, they don't care, but Xia Ruo is a pillar, so it is really a little bad to protect ghosts like this, especially a pillar who has just won the title.

"Maybe what you said is true, she hasn't hurt humans before, but who can guarantee that she won't eat people in the future?

The ghost killing team does the thing of killing ghosts, if you don't kill ghosts, are we still ghost killing teams? How did you become a pillar with such childish thoughts," Wind Pillar Immortal Chuan put his gaze on Xia Ruo's body and said in a cold tone.

It seems that Xia Ruo's words have angered him, and in Immortal Chuan's words, he also questioned whether Xia Ruo has the qualifications to become a pillar.

"I became a pillar because I killed the upper string ghost, and I met the rules for the ghost killing team to become a pillar, I killed a man-eating ghost, not a child who restrained the desire to eat people for two years," was scolded by the wind pillar like this, Xia Ruo was still not in a hurry, but the words he said were unexpectedly sharp.

"If you don't know how to think, you only know how to kill ghosts, and you may lose your humanity in the end."

"You're saying I've lost my humanity?"

Wind Pillar Immortal River's eyes became more and more terrifying.

"You're just a newcomer to the Ghost Slayer Team, following the Butterfly Ninja, with the help of the power of the cat on your body, and then killing the weakest one to get the title of the pillar, do you think that becoming a pillar is your inflated capital? I'm afraid the ghosts you've killed are less than a fraction of mine, little ghost! ”

Xia Ruo frowned, the other party was already a provocation, since this was the case, how could he not respond.

"Since you think I can't do it, how about making a bet?"

"What are you going to bet on me?"

Immortal Chuan raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect that this kid in front of him wanted to bet with himself, he was a little curious, what could this guy bet on.

"I'm not betting with you, I'm betting with all of you," Xia Ruo glanced at the nine pillars around him.

"Since no one has killed Shangshu in one hundred and thirteen years, this shows the strength and difficulty of Shangxing, and it also shows that none of you have the experience of defeating Shangxing, I will bet with you that within three weeks, I will kill a Shangshu within rank three."

"Three weeks!"

"Three weeks!"

"Winding ghost!"

"Shhh

……

The surrounding pillars couldn't help but widen their eyes when they heard Xia Ruo's bet, and even people like Shitou Muichiro took their eyes away from the clouds in the sky and looked at Xia Ruo who was standing there.

They really haven't fought with the upper strings, nor have they killed a single of them.

However, the strength of the upper string is definitely recognized as far beyond the column, and even the butterfly ninja once said that a upper string needs three columns to join forces to defeat, as for finding the position of the upper wind, the difficulty is even greater than killing the upper string, Xia Ruo's bet, the rest of the pillars don't know how Xia Ruo thought of it.

It's like a joke.

"Are you sure it's three weeks, not three years?" Immortal Chuan looked at Xia Ruo, and when he heard this number at this time, he also regained his composure.

"That's right."

Immortal Chuan stared at Xia Ruo deadly, "What's the bet?" ”

Natsuruo turned around and glanced at Tanjiro and Youdouzi's boxes.

"During the gambling contract, I hope you can pay attention to You Douzi to see if she can control her desire to eat people, if You Douzi can't restrain it, it means that she is a demon, you can kill her, if she does control her desire to eat people, I hope you can recognize You Douzi."

Xia Ruo didn't say how he won, for example, if he won, let them let go of Youdouzi, but said that he hoped to give these pillars a three-week time to observe Youdouzi, this method is not to force them to recognize Youdouzi, but to let them recognize it slowly.

This is also the best way to accept it, because in the later stages of the comics, all the pillars recognized You Beans with the passage of time.

"Hmph, you're still shielding this ghost, stupid, do you really think that the ghost will restrain his desires?"

Although Immortal Chuan said this, but in front of the killing of Shangyu in the gambling contract, Your Beans seemed insignificant.

"What if you lose your bet."

"If I don't complete the bet, I, along with Tom, will give up the title of the pillar together, and will never inherit the title of the pillar again," Xia Ruo said as he looked at the Immortal River.

"Meow?"

Tom was watching the play on it, but he didn't know why he was suddenly represented.

Immortal Chuan looked at Xia Ruo's face, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his eyes.

"Okay, I'll take this bet."
